II ever representative from Montans
to the halls Of the National Leeislatuiy
earned the peoples plaudit. "Well dons
good and faithful servant" that representa-,
tive is the Hon. J. K. Tooie. Entering up
on the discharge of his duties as delegate
comparatively unknown outside of the
Territory and inexperienced in those arte
by which the politician succeeds, he returns
at the end of his first term with the crown
OF the victor upon his brow, and hehearts
of grateful people reaching out to him.
Montana is much, very much indebted to
Mr.. Toole. With an eye single to the vel
fare and advancement OF the Territory he
has industriously and successfully labored
in its interests, accomplishing results
as unexpected as they are i'm.
portant and ad outrageous to every
citizen OF Montana. It is largely
through his persistent efforts that mil.
lions of acres heretofore locked up in the
Indian reservations in the Territory will
be thrown open to settlement, and it is
almost entirely due to his indefatigable la
bors that the right OF way through the
Northern Indian reservation was secured
for the Montana Central, thus giving to the
people another great railroad line through
the Territory. If Mr.. Toole had nothing
more to show for his two years service he
would be entitled to the lasting gratitude
OF his constituents. But these works are
by no means all he has accomplished for
Montana. They stand out though as cor
rect measurements OF his industry, intelli-
gence, influence and efficiency as a repre-
sentative Of the people of the Territory in
the halls OF Congress.
Butte semi-weekly miner., 1887-03-30

Mr.. Sample Orr presents very readable
article on the labor question on this page
The gentleman has evidently given the
matter considerable thought, but like many
others who have written upon the same
subject, he simply states we'll known propo.
sitions without suggesting remedies for the
evils spoken of. The fact is, since the
creation of the world wealth has been
drawn in the direction Of industrious, fru-
gal, intelligent labor, while it Stunned the
idle and improvident. It will be thus
drawn to the end Of all time. This is a
cold, chrystalized fact, and no finely spun
theories in regard to the relation of capital
to labor, or the ownership of labor will
negative it's force. But men will dream
and speculate upon what they are pleased
to term the 'labor problem" and the
world and it's industries will move right
along as OF old-labor resolving itself into
capital, and capital employing labor.
